There use to be a decent sized Jetlegend F4 I wonder if they might do that in PNP. They seem to do a mix of new jets and old Jetlegend kits as new PNP (not that that’s a bad thing)

Assuming there's no new info for the F-15? Thinking we may not hear anything about it till Florida Jets. Any reps have the scoop?

They did the big F86 and I think the F100 is close behind.

Any plans on making there 1/5 scale F18 in to a B or D model. I know most people dont like two seater versions but the 18 looks good in the two seater version. Look at eflite they jist released a B/D model.

Flight testing to begin very soon. Initial testing and work being done on the prototype to prepare for flight testing. Everything is looking very good and first flights will begin shortly.

Cool. Thanks. Any chance there will be an EDF option for the plane?

Rob says it flies very well, and is very stable in takeoff and landing. They're moving the CG back slightly from initial testing, and finalizing control throws, but they're happy with it. I'd bet orders will be taken pretty soon now..
